Man cold! Loud! And I can see 200 yards 45 minutes before legal. I keep thinking I forgot my release! Good luck everyone!

Anyone who shoots a doe does. Most have fawns even if not in site at the moment. I will unless early season. Fawn will be fine.

I have been in stand at 6am for the last however mNy days now. Same tomorrow

Well tomorrow I will be in shotgun so the Ithica Deerayer II 20 gauge with Lightfield ammo. I may get chance to lay two down. Then I'll go with the 30-30 or Triumph ML depending how I am hunting.

11/14 am 34 Had a little snow down first time this season. % sets of tracks across the back lawn another 4 or so between there and my stand. Sat 2 hours nothing. My bro was in his stand and nothing. Two does did move by the cam at 8 and I pushed one on way out.

Taking a break and heading out again in a few. Deer were moving before light and a couple at 8 went by cam, I pushed another on way out.

11/13 am 34 Sat out back for 2 hours. Jumped one just off the lawn going in. Nothing else. My brother hunted out back tonight I got stuck at work. He saw 5 in 1.5 hours. He had a doe and something off one side for 40 minutes and another behind him. Then a grunting one coming down ridge straight at him that turned out to be the BIG 10 point I have not had on cam since summer. Coming right to him then from out front another grunter coming in full bore. This one is the nice 8 pic above who slams right into the 10 and they both go slamming each other running up the ridge away!! He never had a shot he was still all wound up when he came in to tell me. Thinks he is gonna be a sick day tomorrow!! For sure a hot doe, hope she is not ready to get locked up till after tomorrow. I got the day off.

11/11 pm 65 Well it was quite warm so easing to my stand a bit before 2 and not expecting much before last light with the heat. So of course 2 doe 50 yards from my stand bust me in the potato chip leaves. Sit for 3 hours and nada. On way out jump a couple by the middle stand. Seeing lots of deer but time is running short on bow season! That polar air coming in tomorrow looks nice!! I will be out in the am if the rain is not to bad, I wish I could do afternoon the temp is supposed to tank into the 30s by sunset but I have a bunch of meetings..... workin for a living sucks!!

Zen my thoughts are with ya! My dad now 77 has slowed down a lot he will get out with us for a half day. He shows up after light, too hard for him in the dark and he gets cold which is new to him these last years due to cancer treatments and blood thinners. I remember when I was young he never even wore gloves and I was freezing! I been trying to get him one last deer for a couple years now. Maybe this year. I got a brush blind a short walk from the back yard he likes on sunny days! He don't hunt in no shit weather no more! And calls us a bunch of idiots for getting up to be in stand a hour before light and all the scent shield and stuff.... My son is 12 I hope he is around to see him get his first.

7a serious uptake in buck movement but not seen chasing yet. Seeing regular doe groups.

Yes I have seen two or three even four under one tree quite a few times
